Yeah, I thought Nissan would've had a say, but than again.... FF is the only modified car movie out there. Why wouldn't they jump into free advertising? Of course if the director for FF was like "This R32 will break down and this R33 will lose to this Honda and the R34 will JUST beat a Supra" it could be bad marketing.

Well, apparently R34's are illegal in the states due to some "safety" issue? Didn't pass it in the states, I dunno, that's what I keep reading on youtube comments. But the fact they use an R34 in FF2 kinda defeats the purpose of not "using one", the fact they used it for a scene, one would only assume why not use it for the rest of the movie? Also, the R35 GTR was seen at the VERY end of FF5 - why not use it during FF5? Sure, if the R35 GTR loss to a car, a debate could be had given it's performance but.. yeah.. I just don't understand why they wouldn't use them.

they didnt use the r35 for 1 reason and i know what it is lol...

It was the FIRST 35 ever sold. the owner said they could use it IF he drove it, parked it and they couldn't touch it. the owner drove it, parked it. It sat there for the scene and then he drove home haha

But what is weird about FF is when they screened FF4 and then FF5 with the WRX hatch in FF4 and saying that it was the in between movie for FF2-FFTD the time span of the movie (when the story happened) was actually before the WRX hatch came out so was a little confused with that.

They didn't bother with Skylines because the whole domestic vs import scene is about ricified Hondas and stuff, well at least when the first one came out. They probably wanted to appeal to the kids who actually drive those cars, rather than some "dream" car that doesn't exist on the streets ever there.

    • roof rail delete used to be a thing, they were made locally for a while too
    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
    • If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
